GOOD WORK.
THE HERALD,
Salt Lake City, Utah.

THE HERALD heartily congratulates
the managers of the Peoples party and
the members of that party on their ex-
celIent work on Monday. Whatever
may be said concerning negligence and
apathy in the past, no such charge can
be brought forward on this occasion.
The organization YVES thorough and
systematic, and the labor was effective.
We doubt if any election were ever be-
fore held when so large a percentage of
a party's voters were gotten to the polls.
In two c. the city districts, over SO per
cent of those whose names we're on the
registration list voted. Some of the
citizens from one of these districts were
out of the Territory, and could not be
brought here in time, otherwise the full
registered vote would have been cast. In
one district less than ten Peoples party
men were absent from the polls. We
have similar reports from other parts
of the Territory. Wherever the contest
promised to be at all close, the People
dropped all else and went to the polls.
So much commentator, however,
cannot be given to those members of
the party who failed to register last
spring. If the registration had been
within ten per cent. as full as the vot-
ing, the People would have chosen
every member of the Legislature, not
excepting the Representative and
Councillor from Summit. However, we
are not going to complain. The result
will not be without its benefits. The
lesson is good one, and costs little or
nothing. The four or possibly five
members which the Liberals will have
in the Assembly will be unable to work
any mischief. They will be powerIess
for evil. and cannot even pose as effec-
tive obstructionists, hence the harm of
aelecing them will be in every way in
significant The benefit that will come
from their election will be seen
10 the sharp awakening of all
the members of the Peoples party.
Another year will find the names OF
very few who are qualified to vote off
the list, and another election will roll
up Peoples msjorities which will aston
ish and discourage the Liberals.
Altogether we are very proud of Mon
days work, and are not at all displeased
by the results. If the People had been
selecting Liberals for the Lee isla-
ture, they would probably have chosen
some of the very men who have been
elected, as the latter are among the
least radical, and consequently among
the least offensive of the Liberals. The
hot-head, fanatic candidates were de-
feated.

THE ALEXANDRIA, a }, Gazette, one OF
the ablest and fairest papers in the Old
Dominion, has very clear idea of the
situation of things in Utah, and posse
ses the courage to speak out manfuIly
though it is unpopular to do SO. 1t
says:
The Territory of Utah now possesses all
the requisite quail ficatiOns of Statehood,
aud should be admitted thereto without any
further delay. The attempt to prolong its
exclusion upon the ground that having been
admitted as State into the Union its legis-
lature may possibly enact laws objection
able to the other States is utterly unwar-
ranted and unprecedented. Nosuch reason
was ever before assigned for the exclusion
of any other Territory, and is without the
slightest iustifcatiOnin the case referred to.
The constitution just framed ny the people
of Utah is comfortable to that of the United
States, and why those people, any more
than those of any other Territory that has
been, or that may be, admitted, should be
grossly and gratuitously insulted by ex-
pressed OF implied doubts of their future
fidelity, loyalty and patriotism, is what only
those whose selfish interests will be sub
served by keeping them still longer out of
the Union can tell.

MEXICAN BANDITS.
Particulars of the Recent Encounter at
the BalsO Cut.Off.
ST. IOUIS. June 4

ST. LOUIS, June A.
A special from Matamoras, Mex, SAYS
The particulars of the action between the
Mexican cavalry, under Col. Nieves Herman
dez and the Mexican bandits, recently driven
from the Balso cutoff by the aid of the civil
authorities of Texas, has been received. The
bandits numbered 2S, and are believed to be
under the command of Lazaro Ayala, a well
known bandit from the State of Neuvo Leon
Col. Hernandez had divided up his men to
pursue them, and, as his men had unsaddled
to take supper at the Port Rero ranch, they
were attacked and fred upon from the woods
by the bandits and one man killed. Herman
dez at once saddled up and with his little
force started after them. At the Conejos
ranch they were overtaken and another fight
occurred, the bandits beating off Hernandez
with the loss of three men wounded, he being
wounded in the hand by bullet which struck
his carbine and glanced just as he was load
ing it. The plucky colonel, with eight effect
i've men still hung on the trail of his foes,
and reinforcements arriving, he again struck
and surrounded them, capturing, it is said, IA
who were Immediately executed. The bal
ance are being hotly pursued, and cavalry
from all quarters are closing down on them.
1t is reported that case of rifles was sent to
these men by the revolutionary party in
Brownsville, and it 10 known that most of the
men captured had two pistols and new Win
chesters. After many years the civil and
military authorities are working in unison to
break up the bandits which infest the cut
offs along the border. If the United States
Congress would take some action to permit
the American cavalry to be used by the
sheriff to aid them, it is probable that the
banditti, who have for over 40 years infested
the frontier, could be permanently extermin-
ated.
